Our Expert Take

IndusInd Legend is a free card with a genuinely useful quirk: it earns rewards on categories most cards exclude, like rent, utility bills and insurance premiums, at a modest but real 0.70 points per ₹100. The 2X weekend bonus and 1:1 airline mile transfer add real value, though lounge access was discontinued in March 2025.
